In this world that we live in women are most likely the victimes of physical,mental,verbal,or sexual abuse. It is because sometimes women can't fight back and are considered to be weak. Most of the times women experience violence from their partners. According to World Health Organization (WHO), 1 in 3 women worldwide have experienced either physical and/or sexual intimate partner violemce or non-partner sexual violence in their lifetime. Based on the preliminary findings of the 2017 National Demographic Health Survey(NDHS), 1 in every 4 ever-married women aged 15-49 has ever experienced physical,sexual,or emotional abuse/violence by their husband or partner.
Luckily,we already have a law that protects women. It is the RA 9262 known as The Anti-Violence Against Women and their Children Act of 2004. It means it does not only protect women but also children. This law is protecting women and children's right. However,this law still didn't stop the abusing. I mean it did slowed down but it didn't completely stop. So I want to call everybody's attention to start movement that tackles women and children's rights. We need to educate everyone, we need to let them know about their rights.
